Journal ArticleDOI
Denitrification of groundwater with pyrite and Thiobacillus denitrificans
TL;DR: Anaerobic batch and flow-through experiments were performed to confirm the role of pyrite as electron donor in bacterial denitrification and to look into the feasibility of Pyrite-driven denitification of nitrate-contaminated groundwater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced denitrification in groundwater and sediments from a nitrate-contaminated aquifer after addition of pyrite
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used chemical, isotopic and microbiologic techniques to evaluate the extent to which the addition of pyrite to groundwater and sediments from a nitrate-contaminated aquifer could stimulate denitrification by indigenous bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological Status and Community Composition of Microbial Mats of the Ebro Delta, Spain, by Signature Lipid Biomarkers
Antoni Navarrete,Aaron D. Peacock,Sarah J. Macnaughton,Jordi Urmeneta,Jordi Mas-Castellà,David C. White,Ricardo Guerrero +6 more
TL;DR: Physiological status of microbial mats of the Ebro Delta (Tarragona, Spain) based on the extraction of lipids considered ``signature lipid biomarkers'' (SLB) from the cell membranes and walls of microorganisms has been analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity of selected bacterial species to UV radiation
TL;DR: It seems that the possession of pigments had no important effect in the sensitivity of R. sphaeroides to UV radiation, and E. coli was the most sensitive bacterium tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of types of microbial mats at the Ebro Delta, Spain
TL;DR: The alternation of emergence and submergence is optimal for the maximal development of Microcoleus-dominated microbial mats in La Banya spit, and the most highly developed microbial mats may be preserved as laminated hard sediments.
